mislabelled album[edit]

I was curious if anyone else has a mislabeled album. My second side is the second side of the soft parade. I bought this album new in the eighties. Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Pontopup (talk • contribs) 06:00, 1 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hard Rock Cafe[edit]

The article mentions the real-life Morrison Hotel, but what about the Hard Rock Cafe on the back cover of the album? Presumably it's not related to the later Hard Rock Cafe, but it existed, I guess in downtown Los Angeles, street number 300. Was it notable in any way apart from being part of the packaging for this album? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 15:49, 3 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I visited the Hard Rock Cafe just after the album came out. I had a job as a courier in downtown Los Angeles and drove past the Hard Rock Cafe (located in the worst part of Skid row) and the Morrison Hotel. It (and all the buildings and alleys nearby) were notable only for the strong smell of urine. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.154.161.209 (talk) 00:57, 14 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Roots rock?[edit]

Frank Hoffman does not say that this album is roots rock. Rather, he says that the band was "exploring musical territory akin to roots rock 'n' roll," which is not such a solid statement of genre. See this page of his encyclopedia. Binksternet (talk) 15:36, 13 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

moog synthesizer[edit]

i added moog synthesizer to the list of keyboards that ray played. a tape reel of "waiting for the sun" documents that there is a moog track among the other 2 keyboard tracks listed on this track. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 181.12.168.130 (talk) 00:22, 31 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

All of the personnel and instrumentation info is taken from the 2007 Rhino reissue with liner notes by Botnick and Fricke. If there are other reliable sources that provide additional details, please provide links or quote the appropriate passages. This is needed because there has been so much vandalism and false claims on Doors articles. —Ojorojo (talk) 16:40, 1 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
